I’ve been feeling down lately and I started re-watching futurama for some good nostalgia, but it keeps making transphobic jokes which is kind of just making me feel worse. Anyone have any suggestions for comfort shows to watch?

There aren’t transphobic jokes as far as I remember but it does become mentioned as a plot point a few times, that for the time was pretty good but now it would be dated.
The example that comes to mind is (relatively mild but be wary) >! an episode where Sophia tells Dorothy about a guy that she insists “used to be a girl”, and Dorothy doesn’t believes her. Later in the episode the guy, in fact, comes out that “I used to be a girl” to a group of people, Dorothy surprised about that. !<

Honestly groundbreaking for its time
